Serene 1950 Cherry Valley Guest Cottage 🏡🌻 The space 1950 Rural Guest Cottage! Cottage is completely furnished with 2-bedrooms, 1.5 bath - you will enjoy the entire private Cottage nestled in the San Gorgonio Mountain foothills at 2,800 ft. elevation. We are a rural setting surrounded by 5 acres of land. If a rural setting is not something you're comfortable with, this Cherry Valley Cottage may not be your best choice. You may hear coyote at night, plus our rooster, in addition to the local roosters, who love to greet the day. We've been known to have a bobcat or two roam around at night.  We have horned owls who sometimes hoot their songs during the night. a donkey lives a few Acres away and sometimes likes to sing his hee haw hee haw song! All these events are just part of the charm of being away from the city and enjoying our peaceful piece of paradise. AND, although we attempt to keep our Cottages immaculate, you May See a Bug! We pay $150 housekeeping fee for cleaning between every guests arrival, as well as $150 a month for organic bug spraying.. We try to stay away from poisons on the property and do our best to use organic ways to keep the country critters/insects at bay, but once in awhile they will pack up their families and try to move in! So if an earwig sneaks in just send him/her back out the door! 😊🏡🌻 A fully-equipped original 1950 Youngstown Kitchen with pots, pans, glasses, dishes, towels, plates, bowls, utensils, etc., are all available for your use. Bring groceries before your arrival and enjoy home-cooked meals prepared right in your own Guest Cottage! Also, you will find a self-serve breakfast in the refrigerator, provided once on your first day, and may include some or all of the following: our own fresh eggs (a gift from our pasture-raised hens) butter, coffee, and fresh cream. Plus, feel free to use any of the items in the cupboards, additional items in the refrigerator, and the full stock of fresh spices. In addition, we have wonderful restaurants very close by to the Cottage for your dining-out pleasure. AT&T Direct TV/Fire TV is provided in which guests can log into with their personal accounts. We also offer complimentary Frontier FIOS WIFI during your stay. Please respect that this is a Non-Smoking Home and Property. Guest is liable, and for any guest they invite into the Cottage, during Airbnb rental agreement to keep it smoke-free. If you are a smoker, and wish to rent my property, please message me to discuss. Thank you for your understanding! CLEANING FEE: No Cleaning Fee Charged to Guests (currently.. ) and if you check other listings I'm sure you will find this very rare in this industry. The Guest Cottage is cleaned, at $150 between each Guest: fresh linens/towels, floors mopped, bathrooms, etc. I have had a hand-full of guests who have not treated the Cottage as it deserves (even though they left awesome reviews of how much they loved it!) and I do not want to charge a cleaning fee to my guests as this website has its own fees they have to charge over and above what I receive... so thank you for your consideration regarding this issue! If Cottage is left in disarray - dirty dishes, pup fur on furniture, trash left strewn, food all over the counters, etc., we will charge a $79 fee from guest deposit. SURROUNDINGS: The Guest Cottage is 30 miles from Palm Springs. The Living Desert Museum is a bit further east. Twenty minutes west is the historic town of Redlands; we are less than 50 miles from Big Bear Lake, including Forest Falls just 20 miles away; and 15 minutes to the tranquil mountain town of Oak Glen, with excellent hiking trails! plus we are less than 50 miles west of the incredible Joshua Tree National Park! which makes for a fabulous day trip. Guest access You are welcome to walk around the entire 5-acre property surrounding the Guest Cottage. BRING a frisbee or kite and enjoy the open spaces! Please be respectful of my guests at the south side of property, another Airbnb rental. At the back fence near the barn we allow neighbors to keep their horses. The other fenced field is our free roaming chicken pasture, and red barn chicken coop. We ask that you do not open any of the chicken or horse gates to ensure their safety. Other things to note Enjoy your stay! Please leave the Guest Cottage in the same condition in which you found it - straightened up, rugs in place, furniture put back if moved, dishes washed, kindly leave beds turned down for quick changing, and leave all trash bagged and placed in the driveway trash container. PLEASE NOTE that I do not charge a CLEANING FEE even though my housekeeper charges me upwards of $150/cleaning.. be respectful of the Cottage and I will not charge a cleaning fee from your deposit : ) If you are bringing your pup with you, and only if agreed before secured reservation, note that I am also a 5-stay Super Host at Sniffspot, a website where locals rent their yards and private land to dog owners, and in our case, the pups can run free, supervised by owner, unleashed in our fully enclosed one acre field right behind the Guest Cottage. If you wish to utilize this space during your stay, please let me know at least a day in advance and I will insure it is blocked for your use, free of charge to my booked guests! 10089 Fabulous Furry Family Members/Pup Policy: I do allow pups, however, there are a few requests regarding our Fabulous Furry Friends! I ask that guests please bring their own pet supplies: crate, bedding, toys, sheets, food/water bowls, and a rag to clean paws before entering the home to insure outside debris does not become a permanent part of the inside décor! Things can be cleaned, but we all want to have a pleasant experience out of this mutually agreed upon arrangement - and we ask that our Furry Friends do not jump up on the furniture, beds, chairs, etc. and that they use their own bedding. If you find it absolutely necessary to have pets on the furniture/beds, please cover all furniture with your own sheets. If you plan on being away from the Studio Guest Cottage without your pet, please bring your own pup crate as to ensure the safety of your pet and the property during your absence. Thank you for your understanding! We Love pups!! We have a Siberian Husky, and an Alaskan Malamute!! so we know about Fabulous Furry Family Members! Please pick up all pet waste daily, bag it, tie tight, and place outside of your Guest Cottage to dry out, then deposit in the black waste container out front at the main Cottage driveway. Thank you, again, and Enjoy!
